The Mill Gate was a part of the fortification of the town. Its early Baroque style is marked by a preserved fragment of painting of the front of the tower which documents the participation of Bishop Karel II of Lichtenstein in the renewal of Kroměříž.

The gate got its present look in the second half of the 19^th century, partly according to the project of architect Antonín Arche. It is the last preserved town gate. Other two, Vodní (Water) and Kovářská (Blacksmith), were torn down between 1855 and 1857. The road to important town buildings outside the town walls, especially to the mint, the mill and the brewery, led through Mill Gate.
